NO NAME DUDE (3) is back after a break of five-and-a-half months. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 5½f at Gulfstream Park. Has switched to the Gregory A Mcgaffic stable. Rates highly and is likely to be prominent. DESTINO (7) built on a nice third two starts back at this track (Dirt) with success over 6f at Mahoning Valley (Dirt) two-and-a-half weeks ago, getting home by 2.5 lengths. Enjoys a drop in grade so he is perfectly placed to score again. UP FOR THE CHANCE (1) was safely held when second last time out over 5½f at this track, beaten 4 lengths after being in contention on the bend. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time. TEXCOCO (6) was in the firing line on the corner and finished second last time over 6f at this track (Dirt) when resuming from a lay-off, beaten 1.75 lengths. Hard to beat in this suitable race.
